Trump packs his transition team with ultra-rightists and family members

By Fred Mazelis
12 November 2016

US President-elect
Donald Trump reorganized his transition team on Friday, naming Vice
President-elect Mike Pence to replace New Jersey Governor Chris Christie as
chairman, and installing ultra-right figures as vice chairs, alongside four
members of his own family.

The presence of Trump’s
three adult children, Ivanka, Eric and Donald, Jr., and his son-in-law, Jared
Kushner, as members of the panel planning his new government is extraordinary
and unprecedented, and gives a quasi-dynastic character to the Trump
presidency. Throughout the campaign, Trump claimed that he would separate his
billion-dollar hotel and resort empire from a Trump administration by turning
over the business to his children. Instead, he has named his children to set up
his administration.

The installation of
Pence seems to be an admission that Christie is hopelessly damaged goods, after
several of his former top aides were convicted in the George Washington Bridge
traffic tie-up scandal, in which they said he was intimately involved. It is
also an olive branch to the Christian fundamentalist right and to congressional
Republicans, since Pence is an evangelical antiabortion zealot and a former
House Republican leader.

Christie is demoted to
vice chair of the transition, along with former New York City mayor Rudolph
Giuliani, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions,
and Michael Flynn, the retired lieutenant general who has been Trump’s main
spokesman on military matters.

The panel will be
involved in picking top White House staff and the heads of 15 Cabinet
departments, as well as moving ahead with nominations for 1,000 other jobs that
require Senate confirmation, and 3,000 additional presidential appointees.

The transition team also
announced twelve other members on Friday, including Republican National
Chairman Reince Priebus; California high-tech billionaire Peter Thiel, who was
almost alone to support Trump among Silicon Valley moguls; and Stephen Bannon,
Trump’s campaign chairman and the head of the Breitbart News website, home to
many in the neo-fascist “alt-right.”

Wall Street continued
its upward climb following Trump’s Election Day victory, with a more modest
rise on Friday. Among the significant transition appointments is that of Paul
Atkins, a former Republican member of the Securities and Exchange Commission
under the George W. Bush administration, to recommend policies on financial
regulation.

The appointment of
Atkins coincides with reports that Jeb Hensarling, a prominent right-wing Texas
Republican congressman, is being considered for the post of Treasury Secretary,
according to the Wall Street Journal. Hensarling, the chair of the
House Financial Services Committee for the past six years, is a leading
advocate of repealing or rolling back the Dodd-Frank law passed in 2010.

The extremely weak
regulatory measures in Dodd-Frank are still too much for the Republicans. Trump
and his critics in the Republican establishment are in general agreement on
giving big business and the banks a free hand in stepping up the exploitation
of the working class and laying the basis for even more frenzied financial
speculation. Among measures favored by Hensarling are looser regulations for
insurers, as well as removing government restraints on consumer-finance
products such as mortgages and payday loans, which have had such devastating
consequences for millions of workers desperate for credit.

Other transition team
and possible Cabinet appointments seem calculated with an eye to the
destruction of federally financed social services, with reactionary opponents
of programs like education, health care and environmental protection tipped for
selection to administer the agencies responsible for them.

Ultra-right former
presidential candidate Ben Carson, the neurosurgeon who was one of the first to
drop out of the race and endorse Trump for the Republican nomination earlier
this year, is reportedly being considered to head the Department of Health and
Human Services or to become the next surgeon general. Carson is a religious
fundamentalist and a fierce opponent of abortion rights and public health
measures more generally.

Donald Trump on Thursday listed out his top three priorities after a meeting
with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. We're going to look very
strongly at immigration ... the border, he told reporters in the Senate when
asked to name the top issues he wants to tackle. We'll look very strongly at
healthcare, and jobs, big league jobs. Trump didn't take any followup questions
during his quick stop in the Senate, including where he stands on his plan to
ban Muslims from entering the U.S. When asked that question, Trump threw up his
hands and said, Thank you, everybody. However, Trump made immigration a
cornerstone of his campaign, and has promised repeatedly to build a wall to
keep out illegal immigrants. Some of his aides have walked that promise back
and said it implies a tougher overall stance on immigration. Trump and
congressional Republicans have also said they would push to repeal Obamacare, a
step that could come to pass with a Republican in the White House.

Clinton amnesty plan would cost taxpayers $1.2 trillion

Hillary Clinton's plan to bring 11 million illegal aliens "out of the shadows" would cost American households an immediate tax increase of $1.2 trillion, or $15,000 per household, according to a study by the National Academy of Sciences.

It would also establish a “2-year mandatory minimum federal prison sentence for illegally re-entering the U.S. after a previous deportation, and a 5-year mandatory minimum for illegally re-entering for those with felony convictions, multiple misdemeanor convictions, or two or more prior deportations.”

Sheriff: MS-13 Gang Brings Machetes, Rape, Scalping to Texas

BY BOB PRICE

Members of the hyper-violent MS-13 transnational criminal gang are bringing severe tactics like machete-hacking murders, rape, and scalping to Texas according to the Texas Sheriff’s Association.

REPORT:

East Texas Child Murdered by Previously Deported Illegal Alien

Law enforcement officials in East Texas are reporting the alleged murderer of 10-year-old Kayla Gomez-Orozco is a previously deported illegal alien from Mexico.

Another new member of Trump’s transition team is Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach. Kobach is a notorious advocate of voter ID laws and other measures to restrict voting rights, as well as anti-immigrant measures. He will be “advis[ing] Trump on policy issues and prepare him for his first 100 days in office,” according to the Journal.

Kobach was the prime mover of language in the Republican Party platform calling for the erection of a border wall between the US and Mexico. This became one of the signature lines in the Trump campaign, as he sought to divertanger and frustration over the economic crisis into the reactionary channels of anti-immigrant demagogy.

Another important appointment is that of Trump’s transition adviser for the Environmental Protection Agency. This individual, who could well end up running the EPA himself, is Myron Ebell, director of the Center of Energy and Environment at the Competitive Enterprise Institute. As reactionary as the official spokesmen on the environment, both Republican and Democrat, have been in recent years, Ebell marks a significant departure. As media reports have explained, Ebell is an opponent of “alarmism” over climate change. The New York Times reports that he “has asserted that whatever warming caused by greenhouse gas pollution ismodest and could be beneficial.”

BARACK OBAMA AND THE GOLDEN AGE OF CRONY BANKSTER LOOTING…. And not one
went to prison!

FOR 8 YEARS BARACK OBAMA’S BANKSTER CRONIES AT CITIGROUP RULED
AMERICA’S ECONOMY AND LOOTED IT INTO A DEPRESSION

“Citigroup’s
recommendations came just three days after then-President George W.
Bush signed into law the Troubled Asset Relief Program, which
allocated $700 billion in taxpayer money to rescue the largest
Wall Street banks. The single biggest beneficiary was Citigroup,
which was given $45 billion in cash in the form of a government
stock purchase, plus a $306 billion government guarantee to back up
its worthless mortgage-related assets.”

“As president, Obama not
only funneled trillions of dollars to the banks, he saw to it that not a
single leading Wall Street executive faced prosecution for

the orgy of speculation and
swindling that led to the financial collapse and Great Recession, and
he personally intervened to block legislation capping

executive pay at bailed-out
firms.”

“So
when Clinton was hobnobbing with Goldman Sachs CEO Blankfein in 2013,
while investigations of wrongdoing by Goldman and the other
Wall Street banks were still ongoing, she was consorting with a man
who belonged in prison.”
